Bridgewater Twp. as NJMEDIC said is broken down into 4 Fire Districts.

1-Matinsville (43)

2-Bradley Gradens (21)

3-Green Knoll (34)

Country Hills (24)*

North Branch (49)*

4-Finderne (30)



*= Companies cover PARTS of District 3 along with Branchburg Twp as well.



Before the County Numbered units each had their own way of numbering units.

MVFD used "M-#"

BGFD unknown

GKFD used "GK-#"

FFD used the year of the Rig "-10"



The unit you show I think would be BRIDGEWATER, MASS



Authority/background for this info... I was a member of Finderne Fire for 8 years. I have visited each station as some point and have seen most of the history of apparatus on the walls of their meeting rooms and bars. This does not match any here.[/quote]

Also could be Bridgwater MD. Mack notes said NJ. Do you have any Ideas about my Finderne Hahn post? Please let me know if any one at the station has any Idea when this Hahn was purchased,or any thing else they may have on it!
